Hitler DNA test

The Russians buried the bodies in a secret gravesite on one of their military bases in East Germany. Shortly before the facility was turned
over to East Germany in 1970, the Soviet Union's secret police cremated the remains - except for a jagged piece of skull and four fragments of
jawbone.

Just why the Russians held on to these body parts isn't clear; DNA testing didn't come into vogue until the 1990s. They seemed to be little more
than ghoulish spoils of war until the Russian archive put them on public display last month and indicated a willingness to allow a DNA
test.

That column was written 2000, You would think it doesn't take 4 years to pull one DNA test. I have never heard about that jawbone since.

Have they tested it ? Why isn't there anywhere about the results ? Did they find out it wasn't Hitler after all ? Has there been any explanation
why hasn't there been any results published anywhere or do I just suck in googling ?

Wouldnt they need one of Hitlers relatives to do a DNA test? Are any of his family still around?
I think if they were they would have a hard time getting any of them to come forward. Short of digging up his Mum or Dad im not sure how they woulf go
about it.

There was a report from south america that a guy down there died recently (1990ish) i am totally drawing from memory here, but he had lived wiht a
woman he called Eva, and in his house they found all sorts of various high ranking nazi ensignias and maps, pictures of hitler in various poses with
big shots etc. his age matched up and alot of other cooinicidences but i don't remeber much more than that, any of you guys remember the scoop?

I seem to remember this also, but can't seem to find any other info on it, right away, but I will keep looking. They would need some base DNA to go
by, he had family, theres probably still a line, just not people jumping up an down to let everyone know they're related to Adolph Hitler.

but cmon whats the purpose of this so they found his remains Im sure Russia dealt with him approately for invading their country so I guess theres
nothing to worry about? Wait, they're going to clone him and now he has the name GWB hahaha jk.....but what if?

I think the purpose is to verify that the remains are who they say it is, and to see if he really died in that bunker, or took off in exile and lived
to an old age.
